Hello, My name is Steve and I live in North West area of MN.  I have a passion for working with wood and building items around the house.  I have joined the Kreg Community for advice, help, inspiration like minded hobbyist.  I bought a Kreg Jig K2000 ProPack several years ago and haven't used it yet.  I just ordered more items from Kreg and they should be arriving today.  I plan on getting right in the shop and using my Kreg products.

Hi.....My name is Rick and I live in Lamar, SC. I've been wood working off and on for years......It's been over 5 years since I've had the opportunity to make some sawdust, but I just had a shop built...I wired it up and now I'm ready to go. I just purchased my first Kreg jig and have built one small project....I love it !!  I'm looking forward to future projects.......

[September Whisenant]

My name is September and I live in a small town in West Texas. I am a jack (Jill?) of all crafts, master of none. I love learning and trying new things so I guess it was inevitable that I would eventually get around to woodworking. My experience with wood thus far has been basically using it in craft projects. Over the years tho I have collected a miter saw, a router, a couple of sanders, a jig saw, a drill, 3 Dremels, a reciprocating saw and recently a brad nailer and circular saw. I became interested in the Kreg jig for putting together pallet wood signs for my crafting but soon realized that with this fabulous tool, I might could actually build something. Since I already own a lot of the other tools I might need, I decided to give it a shot. So I am here to do what I love, learn and try something new. I look forward to learning from and being inspired by those in this forum so thanks in advance!

[Tony Abercrombie]

Hello, my name is Tony and I hail from Nebraska.  I am pretty handy with dimensional lumber doing a 100% remodel of our current residence, deck building, chicken coop building and tree house building.  I decided I would build my daughter a loft bed for her small sized bedroom and came across Ana White's site where she recommended pocket holes.  I bought the Kreg K5 master system, some extra clamps and away I went.  I'm hooked.  After this bed I see lots of other plans on this site I'd love to tackle.  Here is a photo of my completed headboard.  I hope to have the rest of the bed done in the coming weeks.  With work, kids and waiting for oil paint to dry the project is coming along a little slow.  Glad I found this site and am looking forward to seeing what all this place has to offer.

[Tommy TBones]

OK lets get the formalities out of the way, Tommy TBones, Chicago, IL novice well I did make a mallet in high school. I've been looking for an item for the kitchen that I can not find so I have to build it myself which is why I decided to become a Kreg owner. I'll post pictures of my first project in a few weeks.

[Derrick Moore]

Greetings Kreg Community. My name is Derrick. I"m originally from southern Illinois but now reside in Mayfield, KY. I purchased the K4 master system as well as the rip cut. I am basically a advanced beginner when it comes to woodworking and the millions of projects available out there. I purchased the Kreg items to do small projects and once i get more comfortable using them, i will proceed to larger projects. My wife saw several kitchen cabinet projects on Pinterest and decided that i should be able to build her some in the near future. I have done some minor projects such as repairing my duaghters drawers on her dresser. I will definitely be more active on here once i get time to complete some projects and i will post photos afterwards. God Bless!
